> airoha_qdma_get_tx_ets_stats() has two bugs:
> - The hardware counters read via airoha_qdma_rr() are 32-bit values
> but are stored in u64 locals and subtracted from u64 baselines. When
> a 32-bit hardware counter wraps around, the subtraction produces a
> large underflow value passed to _bstats_update().
> - The baseline counters (cpu_tx_packets, fwd_tx_packets) are stored as
> single per-device fields, but airoha_qdma_get_tx_ets_stats() is
> called with different channel values (0-3). Each call reads a
> different channel's hardware counter but overwrites the same
> baseline, corrupting the delta computation for other channels.
>
> Fix both by:
> - Narrowing the counter locals and baselines to u32 so that 32-bit
> unsigned subtraction handles wrap-around naturally.
> - Grouping the baselines into a per-channel qos_stats array so each
> channel tracks its own previous counter value independently.
> - Splitting the delta addition into two statements so the first u32
> delta is widened to u64 on assignment and the second is added in
> u64 arithmetic, preventing overflow when both deltas are large.

- This is a pre-existing issue, but I noticed the channel parameter passed to
this function appears to be derived incorrectly in airoha_tc_setup_qdisc_ets().
- As pointed out by sashiko, this issue has not been introduced by this patch
and I will fix it with a dedicated patch.

Lorenzo
